Amazing essay, thanks for making me discover it. This passage here is one of the many gems:

> Multitasking, in short, is not only not thinking, it impairs your ability to think. Thinking means concentrating on one thing long enough to develop an idea about it.

I love this essay. I had read it once before, but was so glad I stumbled on it today via your comment, as it hit me with perfect timing today. I enjoyed the audio reading, as well.

thanks for sharing this. This is from 2009 and as I listen to it for the first time, seems just as applicable today.

Thank you for sharing. What a beautiful talk.
